Hey, I would really appreciate it if anyone could tell me how to get the look of liquid metal in both a font and graphics. I’m looking for something that looks wholly metal, with nothing really reflected in it. A chrome that doesn’t have that sky/land look like the template surface in ps. As far as liquid goes, I just want to make a viewer frame that looks like it was spilt across the page with a few drops here and there. I can handle the embossing and beveling of it, just can’t get the look of metal texture. thanks so much. Also, I’m going to be designing a lot of cd-roms with director & photoshop. could anyone point me to a site that shows lots of graphic and layout ideas as my graphic design skills are not that strong, also I’d like to take a look at different concepts of design and animation with director. Thanks a ton to anyone who can help me!!

Scott Kelby’s PS7 (maybe updated for cs) Down and Dirty Tips and Tricks has a whole chapter on metal effects.

cs down and dirty at amazon < http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0735713537/qid =1077384836//ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl14/103-0539209-3231829?v=g lance&s=books&n=507846>.

the ps7 version is also available. i see that there’s all new tips in the cs book. so i can’t vouch for the metal chapter. it’s there in 7 though.
